With news surrounding the invasion of Ukraine evolving rapidly, we felt it was necessary to provide an update to our users and customers.
At Read the Docs, we are outraged and saddened by the invasion of Ukraine and we condemn this act of violence as wrong and unlawful. We are monitoring the situation in Europe and how it relates to our employees, customers, and our services to the open source world.
